Pablo Carreño and Carlos Alcaraz meet every day at the JC Ferrero Equelite Academy. They live in the cabins, eat breakfast, lunch and dinner together in the restaurant (they shared a snack before the game yesterday). They know each other well.
The 29-year-old from Gijón was top-10 and the 17-year-old from Murcia aspires to be. This Sunday they met in the final of the 25th Anniversary Tournament. The teacher won the apprentice and Samuel López, Ferrero on the bench. Carreño did not want his young colleague to paint his face before the masked public of Villena as happened to Sousa and De Miñaur, and he played at a very high level for beat 6-1 and 6-4 in just over an hour.
Carreño swept the first set. It's sweet shortly after the circuit restarts. Alcaraz improved in the second. In the third and fourth place match, De Miñaur had to withdraw due to injury when playing against Davidovich. The finalists' prizes, for Unicef and Apadis. “Pablito played immaculate. When he is in the Academy I will not be, because he is going to tell me everything, “Charly joked. “Coming to Equelite was one of my best decisions,” said the winner. Everything stayed at home.
